G'Day Well Guys what a fab 2 days we have had. It started yesterday morning at a familiar 6am and it was a short 55 minute crossing on the flat bottomed Fraser Dawn boat to the island. Straight away Stave our guide had the vehicle in 4WD mode and we were off into the bush bouncing around and leaving our seat on more than a few occasions!!! Our first stop yesterday was the Yidney scrub (rainforest) to look at all the various trees that grow in just the sand. The...
